How we use your posts

We love getting your posts and contributions on the TripLocator website – be that reviews, q&a on our discussion forum, or that epic photo of you propping up the Leaning Tower of Pisa. TripLocator is obviously a public website, so do make sure that you're happy for any personal information in your posts to be seen by others: you're responsible for what you choose to share.

We reserve the right to store your posts, publicly display them on our website, edit or translate them, use them for promotional purposes with or without attribution (if they're really good!), or delete them without keeping copies (if they're really bad...), at our discretion.

Call recording

Please be aware that we may record calls to and from TripLocator. We use call recordings to monitor and improve our customer service, check the accuracy of the information you provide us with, prevent fraud, and as training material for our staff. We'll store the call recordings for as long as is reasonably necessary to carry out these activities and then delete them. Any personal information which you share during a call will be subject to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

TripLocator will not exchange, sell or rent your personal identifiable information to anyone. When we make your reservation, we'll send some basic information about you to our partner company (or companies) who'll be running your trip day-to-day, in order to provide a prompt and reliable travel service to you. In such circumstances, we will share only the minimum information required.

Any company who wants to become a TripLocator partner has to agree with us in advance that they will not share or sell customers' personal information. Companies who don't agree to this are not allowed to advertise on the TripLocator website, and any partner organisation who breaks our confidentiality rules will have their TripLocator account permanently revoked.

So you can book securely with us in the knowledge that TripLocator and our partners will keep your personal information safe.

TripLocator may set and access cookies on your computer for security reasons. Web cookies are identifiers which let a web server know that you are the same person who accessed the server the last time you used it. This is a further measure designed to ensure that your private information is safe with us.

TripLocator allows you to edit and update your account information and preferences at any time.

We will continue to enhance our security system and procedures, using the latest technology.

This Privacy Policy applies only to TripLocator. Where our website includes links to other websites, these do not operate under our Privacy Policy. External websites will have their own policies, which you should read through to ensure you're comfortable with how they intend to use your information.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may amend our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any such amendments and will let you know if we need to make any substantial changes in the way we use your personal information.

If you have a TripLocator account, you agree to keep your account details and password safe, and take responsibility for any transactions made using your account. Please note that TripLocator isn't liable to you for any transactions made fraudulently on your account, but you will be responsible for bearing the cost of any purchases from TripLocator, even if these were made by someone else using your account details.

We retain the right to deny to anyone access to our website, at any time, for any reason and at our sole discretion.

3. Registration

In order to make a booking with TripLocator, you will need to register an account. This involves completing an online registration form and agreeing to TripLocator's Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy. The registration is then confirmed by TripLocator.

4. Bookings

All our booking information is listed on our website. If you require any additional information regarding bookings or trips, you can talk to our representatives over the phone or send us an email. Our booking engine is professionally designed and ensures a user-friendly interface. You may also choose to book your trips over the phone with support from our Customer Care team.

You agree to provide only truthful information when using our booking platform. If we find that you have provided incorrect information, we reserve the right to cancel your booking without a refund.

By booking a trip or other travel service, you enter into a binding contract with the supplier which takes effect when they accept your booking. You agree to waive any right of cancellation in your favor, to the extent permitted by law.

5. Trips, travel experiences and services

You are responsible for arriving in a timely fashion at the airport or scheduled meeting point for your trip, tour or travel experience, and for complying with any conditions for participation stipulated by the supplier. Our suppliers reserve the right to exclude you from an activity if you do not meet the conditions for participation or if your participation would put yourself or others at risk. In such cases, you will not be offered a refund. Please note that suppliers may make minor changes to the advertised program.

While we endeavor to ensure that we partner only with the highest-quality and best-regarded suppliers, we cannot warrant the accuracy of any information you receive from a supplier or guarantee that they will deliver a service. We are accountable only for services offered by TripLocator itself, and are not liable for the services offered by any of our suppliers.

However, in the event of a disagreement between you and the supplier, TripLocator will volunteer to act as mediator. Should a supplier cancel a trip or experience by reason of force majeure (weather conditions, governmental actions or other unavoidable external circumstances which make carrying out the activity impossible or substantially more difficult), TripLocator will offer you a full refund and 10% off a replacement activity.

6. Prices, rates and fares

Fares and prices for our trips are regularly updated on our website. However, prices can fluctuate rapidly owing to factors like changes in air fares, foreign exchange rates, changes in tax rates etc. We therefore recommend that you to contact us for the most up-to-date price quotation before booking with us.

Please note that your bank may impose charges on your transaction beyond the price of your trip, for example in the form of taxes or currency conversions. To find out more about possible charges, please contact your bank or card provider; unfortunately, TripLocator can't help you here as different banks will have different policies.

TripLocator periodically offers discounts and special offers to our customers. We suggest that you check our website from time to time or sign up to our newsletter to stay up to date with our special offers and promotions.

TripLocator operates a Best Price Guarantee to ensure that you aren't overcharged for the services we offer. If you find a service that you've booked via TripLocator for a lower price elsewhere online, on the same terms, then we will voluntarily refund you the difference.

7. Payments and deposits

An early reservation is always recommended for trips and ticket bookings. Late bookings may incur extra charges, depending on the trip destination and duration.

You will usually be asked to pay the full cost of your trip at the time of your booking (though depending on your destination and trip duration, some trip providers may ask for an upfront deposit with the balance payable when you begin your tour). Please note that, by booking a travel experience through the website, you agree to be bound by the supplier's terms and conditions and any other rules or policies related to the travel experience.

Payment should be made to TripLocator, and we will prepare an invoice for your transaction. Currency conversion charges may apply if you are paying in a currency different from that of the supplier. The TripLocator website provides a list of authorized payment methods. You agree to provide truthful billing information.

8. Airline tickets, bookings and baggage regulations:

We are affiliated to many of the world's major airlines and offer an e-booking service from our website and support center. You may be asked to pay booking and/or reservation charges depending on the policies of the airline with which you are flying. Baggage allowances also vary between airlines.

9. Passports and visas

When booking international travel services on the TripLocator website, you are responsible for ensuring that you meet all foreign entry requirements and that all the necessary travel documents, including passports and visas, are in order and valid at least for the duration of your journey. TripLocator recommends that your passport should be valid for at least six months from the date of your departure, as renewing passports overseas can be extremely difficult, and if your passport is close to its expiry date, this may affect your likelihood of being granted a visa.

For passport and visa requirements, please consult the relevant embassy or consulate for information. As requirements may change, be sure to check for up-to-date information before booking and just prior to your departure date. TripLocator cannot accept any liability for travelers who are refused entry onto a flight or into a country because they are not carrying the required travel documents.

We recommend that you also notify your embassy or consulate of your travel details, including your destination and the duration of your trip.

Some countries may deny your visa application if you have a past record of criminal activity. Please check with the relevant embassies or consulates in the countries where you plan to travel if you have any previous convictions.

10. Travel insurance

Travel insurance is mandatory for all the trips and tour packages we operate. We strongly recommend that you obtain adequate, valid travel insurance from a genuine insurance company to minimize risks during your trip.

TripLocator will ask you to confirm that you’ve purchased travel insurance before we finalize your booking, and our partners will need confirmation that you’re suitably insured before they take you out on a trip or tour. You are also required to carry proof of your insurance with you during your travels, and produce it if requested. When arranging your travel insurance, it Is your responsibility to ensure that there are no exclusion clauses which limit the types of activities included or the altitudes attained during your adventure trips, and that scenarios like emergency evacuations (if applicable) are covered by your provider.

11. Cancellation policy

We offer a flexible cancellation policy should you need to cancel your reservation. Please read our cancellation policy carefully to avoid any confusion:

For any cancellations made more than 24 hours prior to the scheduled start of the trip, you will be refunded the full cost of the trip. However, individual suppliers or tour operators may charge a cancellation fee, depending on their company policy, which you can view at the time of the booking your trip. There are some fees which suppliers or tour operators need to pay upfront at the time of the booking, which are non-refundable. In this case, there is no refund available.

Airfares are non-refundable in all circumstances.

Any tickets to events, attractions, shows etc. are non-refundable in all circumstances.

Travel permit fees and government fees are non-refundable.

Gift cards are non-refundable in all circumstances.

Note: All promotional fares are payable in full while booking and are non-refundable regardless of the date or any other reason for cancellation. In all cases, unused car rental portions or vouchers are non-refundable. If a supplier cancels a trip owing to force majeure, a full refund and 10% off a replacement activity will be offered by TripLocator. If you fail to pay for a trip or service, or make a payment but then subsequently withdraw it, you will be deemed to have canceled your booking and this cancellation policy will apply.

12. Gift cards

You can purchase gift cards on the TripLocator website. Gift card sales are final and non-refundable.

When using a gift card to purchase trips, tours or travel services, if the value of the items you book is greater than the value of your gift card, you can pay the balance using your credit or debit card. If the value is less than your gift card, we'll store the balance in our database for you to use the next time you book with us.

13. Account deactivation

You can deactivate your TripLocator account at any time by making a deactivation request from the Settings page of your account. We'll delete your account as soon as we reasonably can upon receiving your request. Any data on your account will be lost. TripLocator may also terminate any account unilaterally.
